Wandering Gods of Day and Night-Chapter 928 - 375: Telling Stories Without Response
The Turtle Mountain Daoist looked sorrowful, raising his face, and said, "Look at the tip of my nose, it’s blood that hasn’t been wiped clean. I’m just a lingering soul, and yet I have a nosebleed."
"I can’t even say if this is good or bad." He said worriedly.
"I can ask for you, can’t I."
Zhou Xuan shouted up to the second floor, "Ya Zi, come down."
"Calling me again, how am I supposed to study? I want to improve too."
After the sound of Zhao Wuya packing books again, he came down the stairs impatiently.
"What do you want from me?" Zhao Wuya asked.
"Lower your head, call out Master Wu Ya Zen."
"I wondered what it was. I really wish I could split myself in half; one half Wu Ya Zen for you, so you won’t always interrupt my reading and studying."
Zhao Wuya couldn’t win the argument verbally, but still obediently lowered his head. When he looked up again, he exuded an aura of solemnity.
"Great Master, summoning this monk again?"
"The Turtle Mountain Daoist ate some Palm Ginseng, and the Buddha energy is too strong, not only elevating his realm but also replenishing his Yang energy. Is that okay?"
Zhou Xuan sought out someone knowledgeable to ask.
The Master Wu Ya Zen circled around the Turtle Mountain Daoist then suddenly struck the Daoist’s chest with his right hand in a Flower-picking Finger gesture.
A sound like metal clashing was heard with a "ding dong."
"Buddha energy fortifies the Golden Body, looks like the Turtle Mountain Daoist has cultivated a Golden Body, but there’s a little issue..."
"What issue?" The Turtle Mountain Daoist, fearing for his life like a grandson, heard there was an issue and his heart leapt to his throat, he asked hurriedly.
"He’ll become very strong."
Master Wu Ya Zen said confidently.
"..." Turtle Mountain Daoist, Zhou Xuan.
"How strong?" Zhou Xuan helped ask.
Master Wu Ya Zen said, "The Turtle Mountain Daoist, in Jing Country, is a special kind of person, called a Guardian."
"These Guardians use the Daoist Temple as incense, living day and night with it. Even if the incense is very low, they occupy a Taoist tranquil atmosphere."
"Guardians have much stronger insights into the Daoist Intent than ordinary Taoists, so much so their Dao Qi flows like water."
"Now, with the added Buddha energy, the Buddha strengthens the Golden Body. Over time, it will condense new Buddhist Characteristics within the body."
"Golden Body and Dao Qi merge, meaning Buddhist and Taoist dual cultivation. If you look at the Guardians as a Tangkou, with their Buddhist and Taoist dual cultivation, they become an extremely powerful Tangkou."
"Only the Guardians can cultivate both Buddhist and Taoist arts because they do not have incense within them."
Hearing this, Zhou Xuan still felt Master Wu Ya Zen’s words were a bit abstract. It sounded powerful, but how powerful was still unclear.
"It’s simple—combine Buddha Country characteristics with Jing Country’s spiritual aspects. When one person has two characteristics, that creates what you see before you."
Master Wu Ya Zen pointed to the Turtle Mountain Daoist and said.
In an instant, Zhou Xuan understood.
People from Buddha Country have an extremely strong Golden Body and strong characteristics, capable of becoming a monster like a Taiping Monk "weighing a houseful."
However, people from Buddha Country lack perception, making them somewhat cumbersome in battle.
While Jing Country people focus on agility and grace in battle, following the path of valuing Magic.
Combine the two...
"Damn, could it be the Turtle Mountain Daoist is about to be cultivated into a war machine by me?"
Zhou Xuan slapped his thigh instantaneously.
This was somewhat unexpected for him—he just wanted the Turtle Mountain Daoist to make a good actor.
"Me? A war machine? Great Master, that’s too much to ask."
The Turtle Mountain Daoist was a coward; since Zhou Xuan came to Jing Country, he hadn’t seen anyone as cowardly.
A war machine that’s afraid of child’s urine...
"Something’s a bit off."
Zhou Xuan temporarily calmed the Turtle Mountain Daoist, then asked Master Wu Ya Zen again, "Zen Master, since these dual-cultivation Guardians are so powerful, why haven’t we seen them before in Jing Country?"
"Jing Country’s Buddha energy is rare, and those Guardians are in remote mountains and forests, how could they absorb Buddha energy."
"Additionally, Great Master, don’t forget... the Snow Mountain Palm Ginseng is monopolized by the Snow Mountain Fox Clan and Reincarnation Buddhism, so it can’t reach other places. In this world, besides you, who else has baskets and baskets of Palm Ginseng?"
"Makes sense."
"If Great Master understands, this monk shall go rest first."
"Go on, go on." Zhou Xuan saw Master Wu Ya Zen’s weary face and didn’t bother him anymore.
Once Master Wu Ya Zen went back to sleep, the Turtle Mountain Daoist kept waving his hands, saying, "Great Master, I, a small Daoist, have no grand ambitions. I just want to stay in the little broken temple, perform operas,
things like war machines and fighting in battles go against my interests."
"Don’t talk nonsense, stay well in the temple, tomorrow I will send you two more Palm Ginseng, helping you reach the five-incense level."
"But..."
"No buts, I’m not asking you to fight, but you must hold your post properly and play the Daoist."
Zhou Xuan said, "If you don’t quickly increase your incense, if that evil rat goes to inspect the Daoist Temple, won’t you be exposed?"
"But I really can’t eat any more of those Palm Ginseng, I’m still dizzy."
"Enough talking, eat it even if you can’t swallow. Many people want to eat it but don’t have the connection."
Zhou Xuan waved his hand at the Turtle Mountain Daoist, forcibly driving him out of the bamboo house to prevent him from backing out and "abandoning the pit."
After the Turtle Mountain Daoist left, Zhao Wuya began to shout, saying, "Buddhist and Taoist dual cultivation is so strong, I want to eat Palm Ginseng too."
"Eat what, with Dragon Seeking Incense in you, eating it won’t develop Buddhist Characteristics."
Buddhist Characteristics and Jing Country’s spiritual characteristics are essentially similar things.
People from Jing Country, having spiritual characteristics, would need to remove their incense to gain Buddhist Characteristics, nullifying their spiritual aspects, just like Qing Feng.
But Guardians are very special, their incense is that Daoist Temple. As long as they cultivate a Golden Body, they can also condense an extra Buddhist Characteristic within them.
